When a strong planet aspects the 8th bhava, death results as the effect of the inflammation of the humour belonging to that planet. If the aspecting planet be the Sun, it will be due to an ailment caused by a burn; if the Moon, from a disease caused by water; if Mars, from a disorder arising from a hurt inflicted by a weapon; if Mercury, from fever; if Jupiter, from phlegmatic affection; if Venus, from famine; lastly if Saturn be the aspecting planet, the death will arise from thirst. If the lord of the 8th bhava occupy the Lagna, the disease leading to death will be located in that part of the body of the Kalapurusha which the sign constituting the 8th bhava represents. If the 8th bhava be a moveable sign, death will happen in a foreign country; if a fixed sign, it will take place in the person's native place; if a dual sign, it will occur on a road.
